Is receiving emails while in stand-by possible?

I've noticed my TP doesn't receive emails when the phone is in stand-by, even if an automatic send/receive schedule is set. This makes it completely useless to me. I mean, what's the point of automatic send/receive schedule, if the phone will be in stand-by 90 % of the time (or for 2 hours straight)? Is there any way to get notifications of new emails even if the phone is in stand-by?
Thanks

Mine works
U have send and receive every 5 mns

Strange, it does work for me (on a POP account with auto send/receive every hour). E-mails come in at night, for instance. They just don't make the phone come out of standby or turn on the screen, but the white LEDs around the centre button provide a visual notification.
You could edit the notifications (settings -> sounds and notifications -> second tab -> new e-mail) for a more persuasive signal (vibration).

Are you referring to cellulair download or WiFi download? Remember that WiFi is disabled upon entering standby, unless otherwise configured using Advanced Configuration Editor. For cellulair download the right network connection must be selected if WiFi was used before. Are you able to receive emails on the proper automatic schedule if you don't put / allow the device to go into standby?

hotmail also works fine with the setting - update when message received (options set in windows live). In fact hotmail acts as a very good push service for those of you that want delivery of email as it arrives.

Hmm, thats odd. I have two IMAP accounts, and neither update when the device is in stand-by. I'm using 3G data connection to update. I sent myself an email, put the device to stand-by, and waited. Send/receive was scheduled for every 5 mins. After absolutely no activity in about ten minutes, I woke the phone. A little after that I get a sound & popup notifications of a new email. Also, the LED around the centre button start to flash. If I don't allow the phone to enter stand-by, it receives new messages as it should.
Well, at least it should work. I was afraid there for a while that this was a feature rather than a bug. Hopefully it'll get fixed with a ROM update at the latest. I'm using standard 1.90.401.1 WWE at the moment.

this was a problem we had with the kaiser....hopefully we dont have the same problem here...

Well, this is interesting. I turned off HSDPA/HSUPA (I have an upper limit of 384 kbps anyway), and enabled automatic send/receive when roaming. After this the auto s/r works also in stand-by. Good enough for me!

Hm hey guys,
I'm facing the same problem with my Raphael.
I get my emails forwared via MMS from O2 Germany. Problem that I just realized now, I only get them when I turn my phone on.
So if someone sends me an email at night, I get the MMS with it in the morning when my alarm turns on. Isn't too bad but still a little annoying - what can I do?

Pulling an MMS back up?

....ok, im using M2D, and i'm on Centennial Wireless.....to recieve MMS messages, i have to connect to one server, then to get on the internet and that kind of stuff, then i have to connect to a different one, and it wont do it automatically to switch between the two...
so sometimes if im on the Internet, and an MMS comes through, it wont download, and the icon on the taskbar disappears, and its usually like 10-15 minutes later before itll reappear and download once ive switched to the MMS server.....is there a way to pull the message back up manually?
....and also, is there a program or some type of script i could use to have the connection automatically switch once ive received an MMS?

[HELP] SMS only goes through after outward call

I flashed CM7 TG reloaded last night and so far I'm loving it! Everything seemed to be working fine at first (i.e.- placed and received calls, sent and received SMS and MMS). After I performed said tests to make sure the ROM was functioning properly I went ahead and began restoring all my previous apps through Titanium Backup. It all went without a hitch until this morning when I tried sending a SMS. I'm using the default messaging app and where the "Sent: x:xx" would be displayed, it instead stays on "Sending...". Incoming SMS messages are also not coming in (I tried sending multiple texts from my gf's phone.) The odd thing is I can send and receive MMS without any issues and the phone will both send and receive delayed SMS if I place a phone call. Also, all incoming phone calls do not get through to me.
So to clarify, I CAN make phone calls and send MMS. I CAN'T receive phone calls or send/receive SMS UNLESS I place a phone call. Any help would be appreciated.

I just did a factory reset on my phone, cleared data/cache, wiped dalvik cache, and reflashed the ROM. I have not restored any of my apps so I'm running a clean install. I'm still experiencing the same issues. If there is a step I'm missing it'd be great to know so I have a fully functioning phone. Should I wipe /system as well or would that not help? I'm open to any suggestions at this point.

One more thing I've observed is that the signal strength stays at -120dBm until I open a call. Once a call is opened I gain signal strength to about -89dBm (this is at home for me) and that's when I receive a swarm of texts and any texts I tried to send prior to calling get sent. Is this any indication of something? If anyone could help, please do. I really don't want to go back to the stock rom haha.
edit: Ok, so if I disable the EvDo network then all of my problems are solved. Obviously I'd like to keep 3G, but this is where I'm at right now.

SAME PROBLEM. Started this past week. Was fine for months on TG reloaded.
I was thinking it was new app related, but you wiped and still have the problem?
I'm not going to wipe if you already tried it.
I'm going to try turning off EVDO and see what happens.
edit: INSTANTLY dozens of missing texts sent/received when going from EVDO only to CDMA only mode!
I am pondering if flashing back to stock ROM and re-running Virgin Activation app would help....
Damn I wish you could run Activation in CM7

So last night I did a little more digging... ended up clearing data and cache on messaging app, powering down, removing the battery for 30 min, powering back up and switching radio to cdma/evdo (vs one or the other).
So far texts / sms are working today, and I have neither made nor received any phone calls. Perhaps incoming are still going straight to voicemail, but I receive very few calls so I will check later.

Things seemed to also work for me when I went into System select (the option in Mobile network settings) and changed the cdma roaming mode from "Home", which was selected by default, to "Automatic". Haven't run into problems since changing that setting.

Well, I found this in the TG-Reloaded thread: "DO NOT use the Titanium Backup App, which can cause more problems"
I flashed mine about a week ago and haven't had any problems.

Some problems with Hangouts. Can anyone help?

I'm currently running Google Hangouts 2.1 for SMS. I've been having some problems since updating.
The main annoyance is that I can not change the SMS received notification sound from "Hangouts Message". Doing so in the Settings > SMS results in it just switching to silent (no ringtone). This happens no matter what ringtone I make it, and once I do this it wont change from "silent" unless I delete all data for Hangouts in the App Manager.
The other annoyance is that MMS takes FOREVER to send. 3-4 minutes every time, regardless of signal strength. It eventually goes through, but it always fails, says "Retrying" for a minute or so, then finishes sending. Anyone else struggling with this?
Does anyone here have a fix for either problem?

Anyone not able to get your hangouts and sms to merge? I have the option turned on.

This is one of the reason why am not using Hangout. Try other applications that will work fine for you.

Stop old message spam?

Sometimes my at&t gear will suddenly receive a whole bunch of text messages i've already viewed on the phone, usually after it reconnects after I've put it in airplane mode or just disconnected from the phone and reconnected. The gear notifies me of messages fine while connected to the phone, it just seems to download old messages in bulk as well sometimes. Anyone else seen this issue, and have any idea how to stop it?

Unfortunately, spam is a real pandemic! Read here https://sureshotsoftware.com/guides/get-rid-yeadesktop/. I hope this helps you.
